1 ARMY RDT&E BUDGET ITEM JUSTIFICATION (R-2 Exhibit) COST (In Thousands) FY1998 Actual FY 2002 FY 2003 FY2004 FY2005 to Program Element (PE) Continuing Continuing 045 Hellfire Product Improvement Program D336 TOW Product Improvement Program D689 ATACMS BLK IIIB Continuing Continuing D785 Longbow Hellfire PIP Continuing Continuing D786 Laser Guided Rocket A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification: The TOW PIP provides advances in the day/night sight improvements, fire control and missile improvements. Improvements are required to maintain the infantry's capability to support the US Army mission of crisis response to regionally based threat and allows for TOW to continue to be integral to the strategic principle of forward presence. Included in this PIP are missile improvements to include a lethality effort against new/evolving threats to include Counter Active Protection System (CAPS) and the Improved Acquisition System (ITAS). The missile improvements are accomplished through technology insertion (TI) to enhance TOW missile performance against the evolving threat and to support the resumption of TOW missile production by replacing obsolete technologies with design for manufacturing and affordability improvements. The ITAS is a technology insertion program using Second Generation Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) technology to upgrade the current TOW Acquisition and Fire Control subsystems. The ITAS program includes development of training devices. The Army TACMS IIIB will achieve ranges equivalent to the Army TACMS Block IA and will employ an earth penetrator warhead designed to neutralize Hard and Deeply Buried s. These target sets might include underground command and control facilities, or surface-to-surface missile storage and assembly areas. An evolutionary improvement program is needed to maintain the effectiveness of the Hellfire Army TACMS, TOW and Hydra-70 systems. The Longbow Hellfire missile provides a fire-and-forget capability, greatly increasing the Longbow weapon system effectiveness and aircraft survivability. The Longbow system is deployable by day or night, in adverse weather, and in countermeasures environment. The Longbow Hellfire PIP will develop Home-on-Jam (HOJ)/Anti-Jam (AJ) and limited Counter-Active Protection System (CAPS) capabilities for the missile. The HOJ/AJ and CAPS objective is to maintain the Longbow systems low vulnerability and susceptibility to existing and future hard kill Active Protection System (APS) threats and battlefield jammer threats. Modernized Hellfire will provide the AH-64 and RAH-64 with a fire-andforget Hellfire capability, greatly increasing weapon system effectiveness and aircraft survivability. The Modernized Hellfire missile will effectively engage and destroy advanced armor on the digital battlefield well into the next century. Modernized Hellfire will enter Engineering Manufacturing Development (EMD) in FY03. Modernized Hellfire missile will be designed and tested to achieve the following: fire-and-forget, increased range, increased survivability (both missile and platform), Page 1 of 11 Pages Exhibit R-2 (PE A) 1493 Item 163

2 ARMY RDT&E BUDGET ITEM JUSTIFICATION (R-2 Exhibit) decreased timeline, decreased weight, decreased size, and modularity for future enhancements. Modernized Hellfire will be compatible with existing launch platforms and the RAH-66. Project D785 funding in FY 2003 and out applies to the Modernized Hellfire program. The funds in this project will be moved to a new PE for the Modernized Hellfire program in the budget. The Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS), presently funded in project D786 Laser Guided Rocket, will consist of a laser guidance section utilizing existing Hydra-70 rocket components and launch equipment. The APKWS is a highly accurate weapon that will compliment the Hellfire missile in precision strike against soft point targets. The APKWS will provide improved accuracy over the current 2.75 rocket used on the AH-64 Apache, OH-58 Kiowa Warrior and the RAH-66 Comanche helicopters. The APKWS seeker program will develop, test and qualify a laser guidance section for the Hydra-70 rocket. The laser seeker program funding includes system level qualification for APKWS. The APKWS seeker will improve accuracy and is expected to provide four times the number of kills at a lower cost, a substantial reduction in collateral damage minimizing fracticide, and a reduction in cost as a result of fewer rockets being required.

3 ARMY RDT&E BUDGET ITEM JUSTIFICATION (R-2A Exhibit) D336 COST (In Thousands) FY1998 Actual FY 2002 FY 2003 FY2004 FY2005 to D336 TOW Product Improvement Program A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification: Project D336 -TOW Product Improvement Program: Provides for continued development of improvements to the TOW missile system. Improvements are required to maintain the Infantry's capability to support the US Army mission of crisis response to regionally based threats and allow TOW to continue to be integral to the strategic principle of forward presence. Included in this PIP are missile improvements (sensor, lethality, aerodynamics, guidance, control, reduced missile time of flight), and Improved Acquisition System (ITAS). The missile improvements are accomplished through technology insertion (TI) to enhance TOW missile performance against the evolving threat (CAPS) and to support the resumption of TOW missile production by replacing obsolete technologies with design for manufacturing and affordability (DFMA) improvements. The ITAS increases the capability of the TOW Heavy Antitank Weapon System by providing improved target detection and acquisition range, improved probability of hit, enhanced fire control capabilities and improved logistics supportability through modular design and extensive built-in test equipment. The ITAS program includes development of training devices, contains the Army s pathfinder common components for its Second Generation FLIR and sustains common components production concurrent with the Improved Bradley Acquisition System (IBAS). The ITAS design provides simple growth potential for digitization applications and upgrades the anti-armor capability of light forces using the TOW System. FY 1998 Accomplishments: 553Continued EMD efforts on ITAS Indoor Trainer 385Continued missile enhancement efforts against the evolving threat [to include Counter Active Protection System (CAPS)] - Updated analytical/simulation model based on latest intelligence reports - Designed/tested long stand-off warhead - Demonstrated electrical active/passive measures 938 Planned Program: 202 ITAS Indoor Trainer 1016 Continue missile enhancement efforts against the evolving threat [to include Counter Active Protection System (CAPS)] -Update analytical/simulation model based on latest intelligence reports - Test long stand-off warhead - Test electrical active/passive measures 21 Small Business Innovative Research/Small Business Technology Transfer 1239 Project D336 Page 3 of 11 Pages Exhibit R-2A (PE A) 1495
